Will Copeland be Copesanity for the Knicks?

When Sheed received two techs and thrown out of the game against the Suns I had a strong feeling that Copeland will show everyone what he is made of. We have seen what he can do in pre-season but he has not been able to get enough minutes in the regular season to show his stuff. I was very impressed with Copeland's game against the Suns and I can't wait to see what he will do when he is given more minutes in future games. What do you think? Will he be next Copesanity? What do you think?

He WILL, however, be a nice role player for us and play an integral part in providing the necessary depth needed to go deep in the playoffs.

Not every decent, young player that comes along needs to be a fad or begin a new revolution. Copeland's not going to be the next Lin-like phenomenon. Just embrace our bench and hope he can contribute more than, say, a Mike Bibby or Bill Walker.

Better he won't be a 24 game wonder, Woody won't give him and Knicks roster won't let him have the opportunity Lin had, but with the age of this team he may just be a nice player a year or two from now.

Its nice to have a scorer of his caliber way deep on the bench. If Melo goes down for a stretch Cope will be huge for us. How many guys have a 15th man who can score like him? Even if JR goes down he will get minutes and he can drop 20 for us in a scenario we are light on scoring depth if given the PT.

so that brings an interesting question if he's 14th or 15th what happens when Amare and Iman return?

Actually if he's the 13th player he still won't suit up.

so much for copesanity.........guy probably won't even dress.

At full strength I doubt he suits up. I also doubt we have a full strength 15 man roster much of this season. We are going to see a lot of DNP's to rest the old guys, and more often than not, someone is probably sitting. But Copeland at this point is really just scoring depth for injury purposes.

If Melo goes down for a few games, Copesanity could be a reality. Dude was dropping 25+ in the preseason like he's been in the league for years.

Oh hell no.... I like him but hes kinda got a sloppy game ... when he has the ball hes kinda all over the place ... and it just looks sloppy and kinda funny ... but he has no nba swagger in him what so ever... soooo.....a good trade piece ...yes...good for keeps...no..
